Clients for twenty years, then their children.
Read enough of these and the pattern is not price per square foot. It is a mother's estate, a first purchase made alone after a divorce, a house bought sight unseen from another country. Several of these people have sent me their children. One of them is a home inspector who works the other side of my files and has no reason to be generous about me. Reproduced as written, trimmed only for length, and any of them will take your call.

“She coached us through our emotions and even dropped off food when we needed it.”
Rashida is an amazing real estate agent who was honest, and kept our interests a priority. Our mother had passed away and we were so emotional when cleaning her place out. She coached us through our emotions and even dropped off food when we needed it. Her rates are excellent and worth every penny. She is sharp, witty and knows her stuff!
“Buyer, seller, landlord and tenant, and she ran all four the same way.”
I have bought and sold a number of homes through Rashida, she has found tenants for the ones I kept, and I have rented through her myself. Buyer, seller, landlord and tenant, and she ran all four the same way. What keeps me going back is that she does the unglamorous half of the job — the paperwork, the follow-up, the call you were about to make — before you get round to asking for it.
“Rashida is not about closing deals. She is there for the client first and foremost.”
I have worked with Rashida enough times now to know that her attention to the client is top priority. On each home inspection I have performed for our clients she has been right there getting an understanding of all the findings and she discusses these findings with the client to determine the best possible outcome for them. Rashida is not about closing deals. She is there for the client first and foremost.
“She knew about the house before public listing and we avoided a bidding war in a hot market.”
When my wife and I were looking into buying a house, we toured areas in the GTA with several agents. It took 3 tries, but we're glad we were picky and found Rashida. She took the time to understand our needs and had the patience to work with us over a 6-month period. She also knew about the house before public listing and we avoided a bidding war in a hot market.
“We gave her three days to find us a house. Not only did she deliver, she negotiated the deal within our budget.”
Exactly one year ago my husband and I bought our beautiful home with the help of our agent Rashida. We gave her three days to find us a house according to our individual preferences. Not only did she deliver, she even skillfully negotiated the deal within our budget. Even after the home was bought her attention to detail was very impressive and it put us at ease knowing that someone was hands on with the nitty gritty's of the entire process.
“Rashida fought for the best deal for us, whether it was buying or selling.”
Rashida is like an older sister to us. The time and patience that goes into buying/selling properties is unbelievable. I have a new appreciation of all the behind-the-scene work that goes on to close a deal. Rashida fought for the best deal for us, whether it was buying or selling.
“She has openly told us when a property isn't a good fit.”
In this market, it's important to not only have a knowledgeable real estate agent, but one who you can trust. Rashida is not the type of agent who just wants to close a sale, she wants to build a lifelong business relationship with her clients. This is the second purchase we have made with Rashida. Rashida always has our best interests in mind, and has openly told us when a property isn't a good fit.
“She is a savvy and confident negotiator and helps get the best deals for you.”
Rashida's meteoric rise to the top of the real estate industry is not a mere coincidence. She knows the market, recognizes trends, and understands how to capitalize on them. She is a savvy and confident negotiator and helps get the best deals for you. We've bought and sold with her several times and continue to trust in her in the future.
“Rashida is very knowledgeable and trustworthy.”
I bought my first investment condo with her and she was there for me every step of the way. She also facilitated my first sale and managed the entire process. Rashida is very knowledgeable and trustworthy, and I look forward to continue to have her as my agent.
“You gave us a range of what to expect and achieved the top end of that range.”
For our first meeting, you were very prepared with a detailed market evaluation of our house. This set up our expectations right away and we knew what to expect. You always went the extra step to reach out to your network to find homes that weren't listed or that were coming down the road for us to consider. You gave us a range of what to expect and achieved the top end of that range which was fantastic.
“From the first home to their last home.”
She goes above and beyond the buyer and sellers expectations. She helped my family buy a home a few years ago and now my husband and I's first home. I truly recommend her to anyone looking for the first home to their last home. She is someone I would trust to take care of you.
Had the pleasure of buying our first home with Rashida. She was very helpful, helped us navigate all the hurdles with lawyers, inspections, etc. Was a great experience and the housewarming gift was a very nice pleasant surprise!
“Her Knowledge is Power.”
Rashida provides a very calm and knowledgeable presence in a well and timely sound manner. Her advice is directly from knowledge and experience, which she directly passes on to all. She takes the time to get a real sense of who you are and exactly what your needs are.
We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Rashida for our sale and purchase. She was patient and attentive to our wants and needs. Her knowledge and experience is unparalleled, and she helped us navigate the process to get us a great home for our family.
We really enjoyed the time we spent with you. In fact, you managed to utterly exceed our expectations on how much value a real estate agent can add, props to you. In addition, you were able to provide us great insight on the houses and market.
Any of these people will take your call.
